It Has Come To The Attention Of The Zion Congregational Council that occasionally members of the church family need assistance with transportation or errands. Transportation assistance could include trips to health care providers for regular visits, medical tests, or same day surgery; grocery shopping; picking up medications; transportation to church events; or other trips. The trips could be local or out of town.
This is entirely a volunteer service with no expectation of payment on the part of the drivers. Individuals who are available and willing to provide transportation assistance include:
Wayne Dessenberg-994-3239 Dave and Barb Glauer-419-994-3718
Bill Gorrell-419-994-4723 John and Doris Messner-419-994-1365
Charles Roesch-419-994-4636 Dorothy Stitzlein-419-994-5094
Stan Young-419-994-4426
If you need transportation assistance, please contact one of these individuals as far in advance as possible to schedule your trip. If the first person on the list you contact is not available, please contact another person. Thanks to those who have been providing assistance in the past and to all who will help in the future. If anyone would like to add his/her name to the list of drivers, please contact the Zion Church office: 419-994-4601.
